Apostille Services

An apostille is a form of certification used to authenticate documents for international use, making them legally recognized in foreign countries that are part of the Hague Convention of 1961. This simplifies the process of verifying documents across borders, eliminating the need for lengthy legalization procedures.

It proves that your document is official and can be trusted. An apostille does not attest to the content of the document, only to the signature of the public official whose signature is affixed on the document.

Here's How It Works:

Determine if the destination country requires an apostille:

Apostilles are only needed for countries that are members of the Hague Convention. If the country is not a member, you might need a different form of certification.

​

What Type of Document?

When drafting a private document, get this notarized to obtain an apostille. Original public documents like birth certificates, marriage licenses, court orders, and diplomas often need an apostille.

​

Where to Request Apostille?

Submit the document to the right authority for the apostille or authentication. The right authority is the respective

Secretary of State who has jurisdiction over the official’s signature on the document you wish to apostille. When in doubt, contact us to help you make international paperwork easier!
